Blue Jays OF prospect Dalton Pompey contributed a career-high five hits Saturday in a win for Triple-A Buffalo.

He finished a homer shy of the cycle. Pompey has hit .390 with eight RBI during his 14-game hitting streak including .432 in nine games since getting called up from Double-A Buffalo on July 17. The 22-year-old struggled in his first taste of major league action earlier this year (.193 in 83 at-bats) but should get another opportunity in the very near future. Jul 26 - 3:38 PM

Dalton Pompey exited Monday's game with Double-A New Hampshire after he was hit in the head by a pitch.

Blue Jays assistant general manager Tony LaCava said Pompey "was feeling better" by end of game, but they are still awaiting the results of concussion tests. Pompey, 22, is batting .333 with four home runs and a 1.001 OPS over 14 games since being sent to Double-A. Jun 23 - 9:13 AM

Blue Jays prospect OF Dalton Pompey went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a pair of stolen bases on Monday for Double-A New Hampshire.

He also tallied a walk and RBI in the game. Pompey has gotten back on track since moving down to New Hampshire, where he’s posted a .368/.429/.763 batting line with six extra-base hits (four home runs) and 11 RBI in nine games. However, that of course comes after he posted a .601 OPS in 23 games with the Blue Jays, followed by a .547 OPS in 23 games at Triple-A Buffalo. The 22-year-old outfielder should return to the major leagues later this season. Jun 16 - 3:04 PM

Blue Jays prospect OF Dalton Pompey went 1-for-3 with a pair of walks and three runs scored on Monday for Triple-A Buffalo.

Pompey has struggled mightily since his early season demotion from the major leagues to Triple-A, as he’s batting just .197/.291/.237 through 19 games. That, of course, comes after he posted a .193/.264/.337 batting line in 23 games with Toronto. The 22-year-old switch-hitter is still considered one of the organization’s top prospects, but it’s clear he has some issues to work through at the plate before returning to the major leagues.

Blue Jays placed 2B Devon Travis on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to July 29, with a left shoulder strain.

Travis re-injured his left shoulder on Tuesday. He was given a cortisone shot in hopes that he'd be able to power through the ailment, but apparently it hasn't had the desired effect. It's unclear at this point how long he might be sidelined.

Maicer Izturis is likely done for the season after right shoulder surgery.

Izturis hurt his shoulder last month while working his way back from a groin strain during a minor league rehab assignment. This is more bad luck for a guy who has appeared in just 11 major league games since the start of 2014 due to injury.

Blue Jays placed RHP Marcus Stroman on the 60-day disabled list with a torn ACL in his left knee.

Stroman will miss the entirety of the 2015 season as he recovers from the injury. In his absence, both Daniel Norris and Aaron Sanchez have golden opportunities to work in the rotation throughout the season.
